mike wheeler

we were only at my house for like 10 minutes when lucas said he was leaving.

"why are you leaving so soon?" he looked at me.

"because mike, i don't want to deal with you and will all the fucking time!" my eyes widened.

"what the hell lucas?! what do you mean?!"

"oh i don't know, you hang out with will all the time and now suddenly you want to hang out with all of us? not to mention, literally right after you broke up with el you went to will! so you're back to making out with him all the fucking time! and honestly i don't wanna hang around you!" max looked at him and same with dustin. i looked at both of them and max nodded and same with dustin.

"i agree. honestly." max said. i looked at them in disbelief.

"WOW! OKAY! it's not like max hangs out with el all the time and makes out with her! WHAT FRIENDS YOU ARE! imagine if you were happy for me being in a relationship. you're just mad, lucas because max broke up with you and went for el! me and will don't make out all the fucking time, and if we did i wouldn't mind! but jeez! you guys are total dicks!" max looked at el, and dustin went upstairs to leave. lucas stared at me, surprised.

"come on el. we're leaving." max said to el.

"no. you can, but i'm staying with will and mike." max's eyes widened.

"what? you like him now or something?" i was pissed off and i was gonna end up hurting lucas, so i walked upstairs and slammed the basement door. i ran upstairs to my room and locked the door, and sat down on my bed. lucas probably hates me now. i put on some headphones and listened to a mixtape. then i heard a scream, and i took off my headphones and ran downstairs into the basement. my mom was at the door and she seemed terrified.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!" max was on the floor crying and panicking, saying something i couldn't understand. will was standing up in shock, lucas was comforting max. i walked over to will. and grabbed his face.

"where's eleven?" then he started crying, and he was shaking. i hugged him and he didn't move. "will, baby. where's eleven?!" he covered his face. i sat him down on the couch. i hugged him tighter, and rubbed his back. he finally hugged me back and cried into my chest. i looked at lucas and max worriedly.

"it got eleven." lucas said softly. and i looked down at will and even i started crying a little. i ran my fingers through his hair. then i slightly pushed him away. i grabbed his hand and kissed him, then i started going upstairs.

"MIKE! where are you going?!" will yelled for me.

"to find el." nancy and jonathan ran downstairs and looked at me. will, lucas and max came up. i smiled.

"come on." i said starting to walk out the door.

"without anything with us?" i nodded.

"if we don't save el, she's gonna die. so let's GO!" i ran out the door. starcourt? most likely. i ran faster and they were all running behind me. i arrived at starcourt and looked through the window and it was there. i looked beside me and saw steve.

"hey, wheeler." he was holding his bat with nails in it. we ran inside and the others were behind us. when we got inside el was on the floor and billy was standing beside her, making sure she didn't get away. the shadow monster, mind flayer thing was getting ready to kill her. i started running towards her, then nancy ran past me.

"you're not gonna die, mike." she said and pulled a gun out and shot billy, (damn.) and then the monster got her. like it did with me, but it stabbed completely through her in different directions. then it let her go, and suddenly it collapsed. i stood there in shock.

"NANCY!" i ran over to her and jonathan did too. jonathan touched her face, and i felt a hand on my shoulder. i looked back and it was will. he sat down beside me. i started crying.

"nancy it's all gonna be okay i swear i'm gonna get you to a hospital-!" jonathan said, and nancy shook her head.

"it's okay, mike and jonathan. i love you guys, you'll be okay. where's steve?" he walked over and sat down beside her. she smiled at him. i turned to look at will and hugged him tightly. i cried so hard.

"NANCY NO! PLEASE DONT LEAVE ME!" i looked at jonathan and steve. they were both crying, i've never seen steve cry. jonathan picked nancy up in his arms.

"nance.. please.." max walked over and looked at billy. i pulled away from will and hugged nancy's lifeless body. i screamed, i didn't even realize it. will pulled me away and held onto me.

"shhh. mike it's okay. i'm here i'm right here, it's all gonna be fine!" he was crying. i pulled him into a hug again and he rested his head on my shoulder. i saw max run to eleven and hug her then kiss her. then steve put his hand on jonathan's shoulder. nancy's lifeless body was in jonathan's arms. will looked up at me and i buried my head in his chest and cried.

"MOM! HOPPER!" will yelled, and they ran over to us. they saw nancy, and joyce hugged jonathan. hopper pulled me up and will stood up with me. i looked at nancy again and then turned my back. i wanted to scream. i'm so glad that thing was dead. will hugged me from behind.

"come on. let's get out of here." hopper said. lucas ran over to me and hugged me.

"i'm sorry mike."  i nodded and then walked out to hoppers car. i got in the back and will climbed in with me. i don't really know what happened next because i fell asleep on will's shoulder in the car.

i woke up and we were still driving, and will was asleep, leaning on the window. i pulled him to me so he would lean against me. i looked around and saw joyce in the front of the car, eleven and max in the back with us, but couldn't find steve, lucas, or jonathan. everything was quiet. i sighed and place my elbows on my knees, and covered my face with my hands. i started to cry silently. i felt arms around me and looked up to see will. i hugged him back and we stayed like that until we got home. will fell asleep. we got to will's house, and i decided to pack my things and go back home. will helped me.

"mike..? can i stay with you?" i walked over to him and grabbed his hands.

"of course will." he smiled brightly at me, and seeing him smile made me smile. we continued to pack. then we got in joyce's car and rode over to my house. i walked inside and my mom ran over to me and hugged me. my dad stared at me from the living room.

"hi, mike!" i waved, and me and will walked upstairs. i looked at nancy's door, then looked away. and we walked into my room and i laid on my bed, will laid beside me. i hugged him tightly and fell asleep, with him in my arms.
